    I'd like to note that even if the recording cost is too high for anything other than MIDI, as long as they have space the new GPO bundles have really, really, really, really, really, really, really impressive sounds, and I would be surprised if the OST doesn't make use of GPO and sound really close to actual orchestration.

    Okay well clearly you're just in a contrary kinda mood.

    The MIDI we're hearing here is less technically accomplished than SSBM, though.

    The songs played so far are awesome enough. I've no doubt there will be some orchestrated tracks, but the MIDI in SSBM is good enough to not have me worried. I highly doubt that on day one you're going to take the game home and say, "Wait! This is MIDI! This game is crap!"

    As for today's MIDI, fuck, it's Animal Crossing. It sounds exactly as it should.

    Certain colored Yoshis in Super Mario World had those powers. For example, Blue Yoshi, when eating a Turtle shell, could fly for a short period, while Red Yoshi, when eating a shell, could breathe fire when he spat the shell out.

    I guess this FS assumes that Yoshi has all of those powers and mixes a bunch together for the purposes of having a powerful attack.

    His original appearance in SMW.

    Red shell - spit fire
    Yellow shell - earthquake
    Blue shell - wings

    There was also a special Wing power up that you could only get when riding Yoshi

    The rare multi-coloured shell gave you all 3 powers at once.

    So for Yoshi, the Smash Orb = Hyber Shell.

    That flashing shell you saw like 3 times in all of Super Mario World.

    I'm a little sad to see the earthquake didn't make the cut, and seems to be replaced by a second fire ball.

    Whilst this is true:

    - The SSBM concert was a huge success and very popular,
    - It has been said that the OST will be orchestrated
    - It would seem strange that this amount of work be put in to the game and yet to remain content with a MIDI OST
    - The MIDI samples we are hearing are inferior to their SSBM iterations

    - Which has nothing to do with the game itself
    - No, it hasn't
    - No, it's not
    - No, they're fine. Listen to Melee again, they're very, very MIDI but still quite good.

    theres no way in hell something like fountain of dreams is just MIDI, plus the credits mention an Orchestra recording for some of the songs when you beat the game, right?

    No, I can say this because I've listened to the Melee soundtrack just the other day. And this new stuff would fit in just fine.

    Edit: Faustum, listen to it again. Fountain of Dreams sounds fantastic, but it's MIDI.

    I managed to get the fireball pic, but can't find one of him flying or stomping...Anyway, here's what the fireballs looked like, with the middle one going straight out and the other two at 45 degrees up and down.

    Think of it this way: How AWESOME would it have been if you've not heard anything about the game... Played through it, and see the words: NEW CHALLENGER!!

    And see Diddy Kong come flying at you? Or Pokemon Trainer?

    It would have been so awesome. Now it will be slightly less awesome.

    Or just saw them at the start of the game or on the cover of the box, they might not be secret characters.

    This melody reminds me that I hope Totaka's song finds it's way into this game somehow. It'd probably be something weird like "already be in battle for exactly 3 and a half minutes when K.K. shows up to play his song in Smashville" or something.

    The phrase as well as Go K.K. Rider itself are references to the classic live-action superhero series Kamen Rider.

    I really hope they don't ever put sonic in the game. The save Sonic thread made me realise how bloody awful sonic has become since the genesis days and including him here would only sully the whole experience with his Xtreme awfulness and disturbing furry undertones.

    If they're going to put in another 3rd party character I say go Megaman. Make him as retro as possible and give his stage some music from megaman 2 and it would be awesome.

    The way his sick twisted fanbase has tainted him is pretty sad really. But sega is equally to blame with all it's pandering to said fanbase with all the humans and animals mixing together and the bizarre character designs they've altered over the years.

    Anyway, this isn't the place to debate Sonic, as he isn't in this game and hopefully won't be.

    So how about that K.K. rider? Gotta love the K.K. vocals.

    Considering I've been getting along just fine ignoring that game's existence (as has Sega so far) I have no idea what you're talking about.
